One of the regular game drive routes that guests at Leroo La Tau enjoy passes Hippo Pools on the Boteti River. What seems like an everyday game viewing is actually quite incredible when you understand the history of these particular creatures, and how the indecisive nature of Botswana’s rivers almost led to their demise.

Guests on this morning’s early morning game drive at Leroo La Tau were treated to a unique and exciting sighting.
Desert & Delta Safaris works hard to be involved in and make a difference to the communities in which its lodges operate, and this is particularly the case at Leroo La Tau. Khumaga is a small village just a few kilometres from Leroo La Tau, and our team at the lodge frequently invite pupils at Khumaga Primary School to come and experience what Desert & Delta Safaris has to offer the community.
As part of the ongoing and close association between Leroo La Tau and the local Khumaga community, the twelve top performing pupils – and two teachers – from Khumaga Primary School, were rewarded for their hard work with a morning game drive at Leroo La Tau.
